Fox tries to import Britain's 'Peep Show'

December 02, 2004|By ZAP2IT.COM

Fox has ordered a pilot for "Peep Show," an American update of the successful British comedy.

"Peep Show" airs on Britain's Channel 4 and focuses on mismatched flatmates Jeremy, a wannabe pop star, and Mark, an obsessive loser. The show's twist is that the sometimes demented thoughts of the two main characters can often be heard. The original show has gotten inside their minds on masturbation, death and male genitalia.
